This is to be a special blog post because the homegoods company called Wayfair.ca invited me to participate in a little campaign they have going on.

I am to write a post giving a few tips which will help create a cozy home during these last several weeks of Winter.

Here in Eastern Canada we have been hit with two huge back to back snow storms this past week and it is hard to imagine an end in sight..

So let's talk about a few ideas that might help us to revamp our homes into cozy retreats for the rest of the season..

1. The first idea of course is to have a nice warm fire...

Either in our fireplaces, stoves or such..

But if you don't have a fireplace or don't want to bother with the work of fire making then make a mock fireplace with candles.

Grouping candles of different sizes on a shelf, a coffee table or at the base of a fireplace is a great way to add a cozy spark to your home..

2..Candles just naturally cheer up a space..

3.. Throws and Blankets..

Throws are lovely but sometimes it does add a sense of warmth and flair to go with faux fur..

Adding blankets to chairs and couches injects a touch of warmth to any room...

4.. Plants..

Any room can benefit from greenery not only in the decorative sense but they are wonderful for your health..

This past year I have been trying to grow plants and place them about..

I think they add coziness, don't you?

Making coffee and glancing out of the kitchen window on a Winter's morning with the snow piled high is somehow cheerful with the colourful Geraniums peering outside, too! smile.. 5..Speaking of kitchens ... Copper adds such a touch of warmth to this centre of our home..

The lovely copper colour reflects the light..

Whether it is a wintry sun shinning through the kitchen window or the reflection of a candle burning on the counter or hutch..
